In other words, they saw through all the tricks they had played with the defense.

Re: The Good Wife

Another interesting show last night. I kind of like the relationship that is growing between Cary and Kalinda...it redeems Cary a bit. He is always out to get Alicia (win over her) but at the same time he helps Kalinda a lot. It was interesting how Alicia came home after hearing from Eli that Peter had fired his "pack" at the end of last night and didn't really say anything to Peter but left the bedroom door open. Kind of like saying I am not inviting you back into the bedroom but I am not going to shut you out either. Wonder how this is going to impact the future possiblility of getting together with Will. I am sure that this won't be the end of Peter's political career... they will probably come up with funding from somewhere.

Re: The Good Wife

I loved this Tuesday's episode. I wish they could figure out how to have Michael J. Fox guest star on a regular basis. It was interesting to see that Peter took the hint and is back sleeping in the master bedroom.

I loved it too! Great episode! I'm so glad to see Will and Diane back on the same side again. The sooner they get that rat Bond (and his toadie, Blake) out of the firm, the better!

I'm torn about Peter and Alicia, because I like Will too. It would be so much easier if Peter was revealed to be a major creep. For now, he seems to be on his best behavior.

I agree! Peter's certainly been one in the past. It is rare for men like him to change their behavior over any extended period of time, but maybe that young black minister actually was able to reach into his soul and produce change.
He's still in the primary stage of this election, right?
Am also very glad to have Will and Diane back on the same side....Bond is certainly a very clever rat. I'm not sure why he even needed Will and Diane and their firm... he seems to be doing very well on his own. In a way am also pleased to see the bad guy played by a black actor...especially as he is a sophisticated bad guy, not just some street thug on a cop show, or "magic" billionaire--the kind of rich villian who just appears and you have no idea how he got to this position. In general the way they've handled racial issues on this show has been pretty sophisticated and nuanced, and reflective of real world politics in both the large and small sense of the word.
